Chevron makes renewable gasoline?

 

Happy Wednesday! We have made it halfway through the week! 

Has anyone read the Business Section of The Houston Chronicle on Tuesday they have a reprint of an article published by Bloomberg and the article called “Chevron touts ‘renewable gasoline’ as an alternative to electric vehicles” The article talks about a renewable gasoline blend that Chevron has been working on, and they say it has emissions about the same as EV vehicles.  The bio-gasoline uses things like used cooking oil and other fats and oils like biodiesel does now.   Chevron is going to drive three Toyotas across the Gulf Coast states: Mississippi, Louisiana, and end in Texas to demonstrate its emissions.  They say it is costly to make, so incentives are needed to get it mass produced.  The timing of this possible alternative couldn’t have been better with the new requirements the Biden administration has put in place. Wouldn’t this be great clean emissions and capable to drive long distances like current vehicles and use the current gas stations to get it?  If you would like to check it out, please click the link: Chevron Touts Renewable Gasoline as Alternative to Electric Cars - Bloomberg.
